Which parent/parental influence are you closest to, and why? Parental influences may include aunts, uncles, grandparents, parole officers, etc., if your relationship with your parents is limited or negative.

About Me

Considering this blog is all about amplifying what's important to me, I hope you learn about who I am from reading my posts. As a summary, I am a single, 26-year-old college graduate living with my parents because chronic illness has prohibited consistent full-time work. I am a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (Mormon), so when I talk about spiritual things, that is the framework from which I write, although I hope people of all spiritual beliefs will find something to think about in the things I write. I generally believe the world to be a good place, but I struggle with finding my happy place in it. That is part of the impetus for this blog. I hope I make some progress! I also love music (almost all genres), definitely enjoy eating (something that I'm sure will become the topic of an entry sometime), and like long walks on the beach at sunset. No really, I like long walks on the beach at sunset. :D
